We continue to review some of the most important materials in heat treatment and metallurgy.

Thinking back to our high-school days often brings a smile to our faces. As a freshman, the daunting task of picking a foreign language to study fell to The Doctor’s mother, who immediately chose Latin for him.

Some say we are on the cusp of another industrial revolution, namely the decentralization of manufacturing heralded by the growth of additive-manufacturing (AM) technology.

O tratador térmico deve se surpreender ao descobrir que para compreender como os processos de tratamento térmico criam uma microestrutura em particular e as propriedades mecânicas correspondentes, é necessário ter um conhecimento básico tanto de termodinâmica quanto de cinética (nesse caso envolvendo transformações de fase em estado sólido como função da temperatura e da composição).

The father of the endothermic gas generator was a gentleman by the name of Norbert K. Koebel, who was fond of saying to young engineers such as The Doctor, “Treat ‘em right, and they’ll treat you right.” He knew that the endothermic gas generator was the heart of any atmosphere heat-treat operation.
